Eyewear designers amp up the colours with high-intensity hues of orange and red – in all materials
Neon colours have returned in force. Hyper-bright colour blocked orange and red frames and zesty-tangerine accents radiate in eyewear, with a very powerful energy, luminosity and upbeat glow. The attention-grabbing tones are not for everyone, but for those who seek a colour accent that’s fresh and positive, these tones will offer pure brightness. Particularly flattering for beautiful dark and olive skin tones, we’ve also seen these neons dazzle on lighter complexions so it’s essential to try it on and explore different shapes and materials!

The recently launched M08 at Vue DC is a metal frame with a bold thick rim. The frame has been produced in a whole palette of neon tones ranging from electric blue and fresh spring green, through to yellow and orange. The bold coloration would be effective as a bright and beautiful accent for Spring! We also spotted some bright red acetate styles in the collection! www.vuedc.com
The sophisticated statement shape of the Alium Y2 benefits from a range of colours including the combo which features an orange lining colour which has the effect of brightening and refreshing the classic dark tone of the stainless steel front. www.faceaface-paris.com
